Denke wie ein Hund

Decent kids movie,predictable,somewhat forced comedy,and below mediocre acting children wise

This is a good change of pace, a family movie without sex, violence, or filthy language, hard to find these days. A young boy of 12 or 13 is smart and for a science fair has invented an electrical device which he thinks will allow him to read minds, to discern what others are thinking. Teaming with another boy, located in China, they illegally tap the computing power of an orbiting supercomputer but something goes wrong. The biggest upshot being the boy could now read the mind of his pet dog. They go on to have interesting discussions.

So "think like a dog" has that connection, plus as his pet tells him, dogs are a lot happier because they don't clutter their minds too much, and people would be happier if they would learn to think like a dog.

While all this is happening the boy's mom and dad seem to be falling out of love, he is talking about moving away to take a college coaching job, the parents are thinking of splitting up, much to the displeasure of their son. Ultimately "thinking like a dog" helps them get back on a good path.

My wife and I enjoyed this movie, we watched it at home on DVD from our public library. It is always nice to see scenes of the New Orleans area.

A very mediocre script and with some very funny scenes, they balance so that Think Like a Dog is neither a very bad nor a very good movie.

A great family film... left me smiling from start to finish.... slightly predictable but expected from a light hearted movie.... might be biased as I'm a sucker for dogs and a sucker for Megan fox 😂

Poorly written, lots of minor implausibilities made it hard to watch. Turned off after 30 min and wish rewind would give me that time back. However, it's a 'cute' family film that's not full of profanity, violence or innuendo so there's that. Wish it had been better written.
